Check your tail lights. One of the bulbs may be loose or blown.

awolf-you maybe onto something----the left fron light that is supposed to flash isn't working-the one under the amber part of the housing-the rear is blinking----The bulb doesnt look burned out, but i will test it-the number is worn off.....anyone know the correct bulb for this?

i found it---------------corrosion-cleaned up the housing at it worked--do they make a cleaner to spray on the bulbs -and contact points to clean up , and prevent and remove corrosion
